Since I am an artiste my line of thought will be along art, art and art! So, as an artiste, i do feel that it is a privilege to be born an artiste. There are people whom I know of, who want to just plunge into the ocean of music, dance, drama and the other allied art forms just to gain the sheer pleasure of being in it. But with no GIFT what so ever! So, we, whom the God has bestowed art upon, should be happy- a hundred fold, isn't it? Well, and how does one realize it? only by SadhanaSadhana....Yes, but one question does arise - 'Sadhana Sadhana'..in today's competitive world...if a person needs to do only Sadhana, where does one generate money from? An artiste (who is not a businessman!!!) is always struggling to make ends meet. He needs the time to perfect himself (well, there is nothing called a perfect artiste actually - it is a journey to perfection..till the last breath!!) ...so, what happens to his finances? mm...so, an artiste should either have loads of Lakshmi so that he doesn't have to worry about the next meal and go on doing Sadhana...or at least the efficiency to create Lakshmi with the help of the Saraswathi he has been bestowed upon!! easily said than done!! Why can't both reside together?? Food for thought!!!

About Me

hah!! About me, well, I am a simple person, an artiste who has embarked upon a journey, with the confidence that God will show me the way....well, any artiste for that matter is very lucky to have that Gift of GOD...but very few are lucky enough to realsie that they have it!! And it has taken me a while to realise it actually, though i have been singing and dancing from, God knows, when. But the actual realisation that yes, I have taken this janma only to delve myself deeper into the art forms came to me much later!! well, better late than never!!! But through out, I have enjoyed the journey notwithstanding the trials and tribulations that i have had to go through..it was as if a test of faith...and today, though I know i have miles and miles to go, i feel when HE has designed my life thus, then why cant I tread that path....especially so since HE is showing me the way!!!! I Must say, I am proud to be an artiste and thanks to all my Gurus and my parents who have realised it and made me competent enough to take up the journey which is generally less travelled by others!!!
